Ok, so they add tormented weapons to the HoM. Then they also increase the drop rate of all the gems by 3X or 4X, everyone can now afford the weapons, the armbrace economy takes a huge nose dive, everyone can have a full weapon monument... Where is the problem?
I am glad they are adding more weapons to the hall even if they are very expensive, it gives you more options.
Tormented Weapons will be added to the Hall of Monuments

This is unlike the craftable weps, which are all req. 9 and not rare, just expensive.

The HoM's primary focus is to give rewards in gw2, Not to make a room for you to show off. Those rewards will be decided by what you have added and creating a unique reward for each rare weapon skin would be a nightmare. Giving the same rewards to each weapon means anyone could add any crappy rare they get from a raptor and get the same reward.

This is outragous!!
We were told only destroyer weps in HoM .. i went out, after much labouring and fill up 11 slots of destroyer weps...not becasue i like them, in fact i cant stand them...the only reason why is because we were told it will unlock some content within GW2... to change there stance now is purely rediculous.

Well it has been already said they will be added, can't be taken back because it be unfair to the people who just bought a tormented set this past week. I understand i disaprove of this move because of the duping that happened to armbraces, but it to late to fix this, the cat already out of the bag.
I only wish Regena would clearify one thing, the 2 bow skin issue.
I think alot of people would like to know if you will need one of each bow skin, or just 1 bow, similar to how the destoyer bow worked.

Meh don't know why people are complaining. "Oh noez! anets listening to their customers!!1!" You should be happy they're listening to us.
N1ghtstalker
it's hard to get an armbrace now actually wich sucks
i'm just getting torments cuz i sold two of them when i got my fow

maybe i'll dedicate them in my HoM if they go to you in GW2 later
but until then i'll keep them clean

good point nightstalker.
you could horde all the stuff (pets, weaps etc) and not dedicate them, then figure out whats worth dedicating for gw2 after the "reward" info is released.
on another note, did anyone stop to think that maybe as ANet dev gw2, they get new ideas and go "oh we could add that as a reward for tormented weapons"
Expect the HoM to change as gw2 gets developed
also expect many perma sf sins to farm doa and reduce prices for us

Yess! Finally!
If it's a Dev Update it must be something more than just announcing the addition of Tormented weapons, I hope for an explanation on how the whole thing works and what counts and what not. (I don't care what the actual rewards in GW2 are and I bet it's too early to ask for that)

But, as ever, everything is balanced to satisfy the grind-monkeys, to the detriment of the actual game.

Better late than never I suppose, but my sympathies to people who labored to get Destroyer weapons in HoM. Personally, I had a feeling this day would come so I didn't bother since I didn't like any of them. Now, I'll put my Tormented stuff in there. Overall, I'm pleased, but I can't understand why Anet didn't just do this in the first place.

I still fail to understand the folks who are upset because they "labored" so hard to "fill" their HoM with Destroyer weapons. Are they as pissed when a new mini comes out (meaning a previously "full" collection is no longer complete), or if Deldrimor armor were allowed in?
It's one thing to be frustrated, but to have such dramatic reactions? ..We don't even know what the rewards in GW2 will be yet.

Well in my case, Im upset because I was told that we were NOT going to be able to add any weapons to our HoM except Destroyer Weapons. If I would have known, I would have spent my money on Tormented Weapons instead of Destroyer Weapons.
My HoM has been filled since January, I bought all the materials when they were alot more expensive than they are now. I would have much rather spent that on Tormented Weapons instead of Destroyer Weapons.
That alone is the only reason I bought the Destroyer Weapons, becasue they were the only weapon allowed in our HoM's.

It's pretty obvious that ANet doesn't have all the details nailed down about how the HoM will transfer to GW2, so personally I'm not suprised if some things are added or altered here and there (like when mini's were originally customized to the owning character). In fact, I'm counting on that when it comes to the weapons, as for the most part I don't care for the look of either Destroyer or Tormented sets. I'm waiting for Nightfall and Prophecies end-games to be added.

I'm confused. If the update goes live , I'll need 22 weapons (2 weps for the same skin) or 11 from which i can choose between tormented or destroyer?

to the people who say "my assassin doesnt need staff,wand,spear,etc-
H E R O E S can use your custom weps... clearly that was the intent was so you can have a team of heroes with matching weps.
dont feel too bad, i know a guy who bought 3 each destroyer shields and swords modded them different for his warrior and then said WTF when he could only place one of each in his HOM.
does it even explain anywhere in game that only one of each wep type can be added?
FrAnt1c??
+ the fact that is downright stupid that you customise a staff / wand worth 100k+ as a bloody warrior lol...
But hey, people are bored, give em something to spend their money on = keeping them entertained?

HoM has been FAIL from the very anouncement of it.
They should have only told us that it would save our character names, left all the rest silent. This would have given them much greater freedom to change the HoM to reflect what players wanted in it.
After they understood what we wanted, and what they wanted us to recieve in GW2 as a reward for filling the HoM they could have adjusted the reward to better fit how we wanted to use our HoM.
Now they are trying the reverse, they know what we get in GW2, can't or won't tell us, but are trying to reverse engineer what we can display to recieve that reward.

You know, they jsut could have made HoM weapons rack "structured"
11 racks.
you need to earn "11 points" worth of weapons to monument count as completed.
purple r9- item/highreq (even rare skin) gold: 0.25 points.
gold or green item (r9-): 0.5 points
"rare" skin gold, r9; 1 point
destroyer weapon grade weapons (r8 rare skin golds): 2 points
tormented weapon grade weapons (r7 rare skin golds): 3 points.
higher rank of item overwrites lower rank when added to HoM.
that way, you have leeway in filing monument with whatever you want but you have offset crap you put in by putting in some precious weapon.
